[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a private school teacher and only lesson materials I have available before class in the textbook, which my students already have access to. [/quote] This would be fine if you teach a lesson that covers a particular portion of the textbook and uses the same examples. Then, the textbook serves as a copy of the lesson. But, if your students have the text book and you are teaching something that is not in the textbook, then you may be legally liable to provide accommodations that would allow disabled students access to the materials and lesson that you taught that wasn't in the textbook. In fact, this is a major reason why textbooks are so useful -- they allow students to preview and review taught material. Schools think they're being clever and saving money by not buying textbooks and putting everything online, but, in fact, for many learners not having a textbook makes things more difficult. [/quote]
